    Default Pyramid bridge replacement on a Martin style 1 copy.

    In 2009 I built a matched pair of a six string and tenor guitar from LMI's Martin style 1 guitar plans. The six string bridge needs to be replaced with a pyramid style correct to the 1890's. My Brother has the guitar and lives in the Philadelphia area. Any recommendations of a qualified luthier to do the work would be most welcome. Thanks in advance.

    Call Fred Oster at Vintage Instruments in Philly and see if he can recommend someone.

    Thanks, if I come up short would you be willing to do the replacement? I respect your cred here and shipping might not be a problem. I am retired and do not have access to a shop at the moment.
